Weighted Graph:

A graph is termed as weighted graph if each edge of the graph is assigned a weight. The weighted edges stored in the weighted graphs can be stored in adjacency lists.

Weighted edges can be represented using a two-dimensional array. An weighted edge can be represented as “WeightedEdge(u,v,w)”, where “u” and “v” are edges and “w” represents the weight between them.

Example of storing edge in a weighted graph:

Object[][] edges =

{ new Integer(0), new Integer(1), new SomeTypeForWeight(8) };

Dijkstra’s Algorithm:

In computer science, the Dijkstra’s Algorithm is a greedy algorithm that is used compute the minimal distance from a node to all the other nodes in a weighted graph.

Suppose you have a graph with 100 nodes and 500 edges and you want to find the shortest path between two nodes using Dijkstra's algorithm. What is the time complexity of this operation?
Explain how the minimum-sum descent problem can be solved by Dijkstra’s algorithm.    This is a problem from my textbook and I am not sure how to approach it.
One-dimensional range searching can be done with O(N log N) steps for preprocessing and O(R+log N) for range searching, where R is the number of points actually falling in the range.
